Recipes in-a-mug

Here are six delicious recipes that will help suppress your cravings. You can make an individual portion of each one in a mug so you don't need to think about left overs!


You can use sugar substitutes — monk fruit, stevia, Allulose, erythritol and Yacon syrup. 


You can also use gluten free flour or einkorn flour, although you may need to increase the baking powder a little or add a pinch of baking soda. 


You can use a normal sized coffee or cappuccino mug. Typical cooking time is around 45 seconds to one minuet for each cake. Microwave powers are different, you can check with a toothpick and be sure that it comes out clean.
